Summary
MaMaMedia Creative Center (Formerly MaMaMedia Activity Center) is currently a colorful Menu Page and activity launcher for introducing all the MaMaMedia activities. It will soon evolve into "My Creative Center" -- a prototype user-modifiable page for creating collections. In the future version, users will be able to make a personalized view of their favorite XO content; they will be able to choose which XO activities to display prominently (all activities will still be accessible) and they can add their own background image.

Beta 1.3 update
Creative Center runs in 613. In this version it is still a launcher (mainly because Journal search and sort functions are not all in place yet.) BUT the activity functionality is being expanded to turn it into a model of a user-modifiable page for collections.
We discussed this expansion idea with OLPC staff in September and were excited to learn that they already wanted to provide the technology for this kind of feature. We are eager to help get that work started with our "My Creative Center" prototype.
For Beta 1.4: Early prototype for "My Creative Center" -- a user-modifiable page for collections.
